As I've told you all before, I was utterly clueless about babies and their needs prior to Wyatt's arrival. I'm someone who likes to prepare wayyy in advance for just about everything - when it came to motherhood, I was at a complete loss as to what I actually needed to do to prepare.

Tom and I try to cook at home 4-5 nights a week, both for health and expense reasons, and we have a few inexpensive go-to kitchen items that really make ... View the Post

Decorating Wyatt’s nursery was one of my favorite projects ever – Tom may have called me “possessed” on a few occasions as my nesting instinct kicked into high gear. Not only did I want a relaxing, beautiful space for our baby, but I wanted it to be as functional as possible, and I didn't want to break the bank on pieces that he would quickly outgrow.
